More about pure+paleo
pure+paleo’s clean confections are packed full of power foods, satiating the most discerning of tastes. Produced in a grain free, soy free, gluten free, dairy free and paleo facility, our focus is on a non-processed, no fillers or additives system of chocolate making, ensuring that every pyramid delivers all of the health properties of their ingredients without the side effects one may have eating traditional chocolates. As a local Vancouver business and conscious of our footprint, we source ingredients locally when possible and utilize reusable and compostable packaging.

We work with other local business owners to produce our chocolates including: partnering with Caveman Grocer for production and direct to consumer sales and using Okanagen Planet Bee Honey and Canadian hemp seeds in our products.

Our chocolates aren’t just about fulfilling that desire to have something really decadent without any of the guilt, but also about a back to basics approach, building community and supporting a healthy lifestyle for a better future.
